Hi, It's PaperStash. I'll get to things quick. I've been on an amazing journey of life with DA by my side for many years. However, you guys may have noticed that I'm... just not that active anymore. I'm going to delete some posts and hide some artworks, then be on the next phase of my life. Since I've posted tons of things, It will take me a few months to reorganize my posts. But after that, I'll probably be truly over with DA. I'll still stop by sometimes, though. And if you want to continue by my side on my journey, you can send me a note and I'll give you my private twitter account. Here are some reasons why I'm leaving, why I'm hiding my posts, etc. Why are you leaving? - I am mainly leaving because I just... lost interest in DA! I usually post works on twitter now. Most of my activity is on twitter. So... I just naturally lost interest over time, I guess. - This account was made long ago. I did not ever cause direct problems, but I used to be a pretty stubborn person, who did not think before acting/saying anything. I also said inappropriate things caused from the lack of knowledge. This resulted in me making dark jokes, posting inappropriate things, etc. without realizing they were problematic. I do NOT agree to these problematic things I've done and said in the past (a few years ago). I've learned to educate myself before speaking my words onto sensitive subjects, I've learned to love and speak with care... I just can't bear to continue with the account that may still have the trace of rudeness and negativity. - I'm preparing several projects for my future (not stating specifically for privacy reasons), and I don't want anyone trying to dig up my old social media accounts. Why are you deleting/hiding posts? - As I said before, I do not agree to some of my thoughts and actions from when I was younger. And some of them are reflected in some of my old posts. I did not want to see them anymore, and I don't want anyone else to stumble upon it either. - Also, as I said, I don't want people to dig up my old social media posts that could be problematic (aka creations from younger, thoughtless me) Why don't you just delete your account? - I know it's a bothersome process to delete and hide posts one by one, but I just could not delete the years' worth of memories altogether. That's really everything I have to say! I loved being on DA, I loved my DA friends, the activities... It is a bit sad to part with something that had so much meaning to me for so long, but they'll always be on the side of my heart as I move on with life. With love, PaperStash(Chris)
